What do you charge your mindees over the xmas holidays.
If I am available to work I charge their normal contracted fee, whether they come or not.
If I am not available for work I do not charge - I am not available Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day.
Bank hols + Xmas Eve closed and no charge.
All the rest- open as usual and normal fees.
If I was taking annual leave that would be 50% fees, but I am not this time.
I finish up on the 20th so I don't charge for Christmas as its my holidays but I do charge full fee for New Years Day as im back to work on the 2nd :)
What about schoolers ones term time other didn't specify
Depends on what you have in your contracts for holidays. My term time only pays 1/2 normal fee for holidays if I am available so I will not charge for Boxing Day and new years day, as days they should be in, as I am not working.Quote:

Other schoolie will be charged 9-5 on the Fridays and as they would also be in thurs normally so no fee as I am not available then.

If they attend, I charge normal fees.
If they don't attend, I don't charge. All my contracts include a specified number of weeks/days they can non-attend at no charge, just so long as they give me sufficient notice.
Get this specified and amend the contract asap. If it's not clear, you can 99% expect the client to assume they can have their own way exactly. :(Quote:
